Jessica Simpson As Daisy Duke A Match Made In Heaven

The hottest news for adolescent male teens and middle-aged men is that Jessica Simpson, singer and ditzy reality star, will make her acting debut as Daisy Duke in the feature film adaptation of 'The Dukes of Hazzard' alongside Seann William Scott and Johnny Knoxville.

Now I will admit that I watched the television series, as much to watch Catherine Bach in her Daisy Duke shorts as to see the General Lee jump over creeks and hit the dirt ramps. The show, detailing the exploits of Bo and Luke Duke against the evil Boss Hogg, was one of those mind-numbing necessities of growing up in the early eighties - a chance at escapism involving hot cars and hot, wholesome women.

So what better person to take over the role than the reigning queen of hotness and wholesomeness - Jessica Simpson. With her singing career taking off with her marriage to Nick Lachey and their suprise reality hit Newlyweds, Simpson has become the epitome of ditzy blonde and sensuous celebrity.
